Wrinkles and Ageing Skin

Whether we like it or not, wrinkles and ageing Skin are an inevitable part of getting older. As fine lines form between the nose and mouth, as well as around the eyes and forehead, your jawline may sag and start to lose its definition, existing expression lines will deepen, eyelids will droop, crow’s feet will appear and a general loss of elasticity and volume of facial skin will become noticeable.

However, fear not. Despite the seemingly cruel symptoms of ageing that mother nature chooses to bestow on us, we have a multitude of treatments that can combat ageing skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a smoother, younger looking and rejuvenated you.

The old adage, “prevention is better than cure” is certainly applicable to skin ageing. Dietary and lifestyle choice affect our skin’s health and excessive sun exposure, alcohol consumption, poor diet and smoking will all exacerbate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

However, even if you live the healthiest lifestyle, what do you do when you notice those first, tell tale signs of ageing around the eyes wrinkles and forehead? Cosmetic companies spend billions of advertising pounds each year to deliver the message that your skin’s only salvation lies in anti-wrinkle creams and lotions, and it’s difficult to decipher between marketing hype and clinical evidence.

We may also recommend alternative treatments to target specific treatment areas related to ageing skin such as Laser Thread Vein Removal, treatments to reduce thread veins.

We are committed to improving and maintaining skin health using Perk and HydraFacial. So much so, that in fact we created a whole new concept in skincare and it's available right here at MediZen! Our MediFacial provides you with the best professional skin care solutions based on your skin’s actual needs. Our experts independently assess your skin by taking a ‘skin photo’ with the Visia 2D skin system which is then analysed to get an accurate diagnosis of the health of your skin. Our skincare specialists will then discuss your current skincare regime and any concerns that you have regarding your complexion. Next, depending on what your skin requires and the amount you wish to spend, we will recommend a skincare plan to get and keep your skin looking great.

Perk is the world’s first hybrid facial that merges a professionally delivered exfoliating treatment with take-home products to offer instantly radiant eyes, lips and complexion. Perk uses roller-flex technology to gently remove surface layer dead skin cells and impurities while delivering vital antioxidants. Pores are gently flexed and the roller ball embeds nutrients, ensuring absorption and revealing a fresh new you. As you get to take home your product applicators you can continue to utilise the roller-flex technology that will keep skin nourished and radiant long after your professionally delivered treatment.

Microdermabrasion is an exfoliating treatment that works without the risk of side effects, and involves virtually no downtime from work or everyday life. We give your skin a refreshed, healthy glow using technology that can be best likened to a ‘skin vacuum cleaner’, lifting away dead cells to improve circulation and encourage the production of fresh, new cells to renew the surface of the skin.

Dermalux LED Phototherapy offers one of the safest, most effective tools in the maintenance of healthy looking skin. It is a painless, non-invasive skin treatment that uses non-thermal light energy to keep skin youthful, alongside treating a variety of specific skin concerns. We accelerate the skin’s natural repair process, to promote a healthier looking complexion.

At MediZen, we use laser and IPL technology to return abnormally pigmented skin back to its normal colour. You’ll start to notice a steady improvement in the clarity of your skin after the first couple of treatments. Like most laser treatments, Skin Pigmentation Removal works by using specific wavelengths or colours of light to deliver energy into the skin tissues. This energy is absorbed by the brown pigment, without damaging any of the surrounding skin, and, over time, the excess pigment gradually fades.

The Hydratite is a unique combination of two of today's most popular treatments, The HydraFacial, to improve skin condition and health, and eTwo Sublime, which provides Radio Frequency Skin Tightening.

eTwo’s Skin Tightening treatment is called Sublime, which stimulates the skin to remodel itself and improve elasticity, smooth out folds and iron out mild to moderate lines and wrinkles. Sublime’s sister treatment, called Sublative, is a Skin Rejuvenation treatment that evens out discoloured skin, scarring and repairs sun damage. Both can be performed in the same session to help your skin look it’s very best.

eTwo is one of our latest, most advanced ways to enhance the appearance, texture, radiance and elasticity of any skin type. Unlike similar treatments that use laser technology, eTwo uses gentle energy currents to stimulate renewal in the deep layers of the skin. This ensures a long-lasting and great looking result, and happens whilst keeping your skin’s surface (the epidermis) intact and protected from damage.

Dermaroller is a process of Medical Skin Needling which involves causing minor trauma to the skin to stimulate the body’s own natural production of collagen.This encourages the skin’s regeneration process to restore youthful and fresher looking skin.Offering minimal downtime, the treatment has been used successfully to treat fine lines, wrinkles, lax and sun-damaged skin; to reduce the appearance of stretch marks; and to improve acne scars.

There are over 180 different Dermal Filler brands available on the market, and we’ve chosen only the highest quality, FDA approved brands of dermal filler, each with their own specialised benefits for different aspects of facial rejuvenation. We only use the best products provided by Pharamaceutical companies and backed by research and medical evidence for safety and effectiveness.

Collagen PIN (Percutaneous Induction Needling, also referred to as PCIT, Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy is known as micro-needling, or automated micro-needling) is a method of introducing a controlled wound into the skin, which then activates a release of natural growth factors, new collagen and elastin, visibly reducing signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles. The Collagen PIN uses 36 micro needles which during treatment create micro channels inducing a controlled injury thereby naturally stimulating collagen giving way to healthier, younger looking skin.

3JUVE combines the UK's three most popular, non-invasive anti-ageing technologies to reduce the three main symptoms that ageing skin can exhibit: Lines and wrinkles, sun damage and hyperpigmentation and a loss of firmness and elasticity. Utilising a simple three-step treatment, 3JUVE provides optimum stimulation of your skin (the dermis and epidermis), resulting in unprecedented collagen renewal and an even skin tone.

Wrinkle relaxing treatment uses tiny amounts of Botox® that is injected, using a disposable syringe, into the muscles that cause the skin to crease. Therefore the Botox® protein blocks impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles that create those annoying wrinkles. This relaxes or puts the muscle into “hibernation” for around 3 – 4 months leaving the overlying skin looking smooth and less wrinkled.
